Just be sure to get a 5 slot motherboard, else you'll need a case.  then when
you run out of slots, throw them both away & get more slots, and also buy all
new 10 Mhz memory, cause the antique rams probablw won't run that fast, and
most 10 Mhz PC/5 slot motherboards require 256K chips, and often the last
128 isn't even 64K ram anymore, then if it does allow 64K's & you need 
a multi function board which may or may not work at 10Mhz....
   No I wouldn't buy a new $ 25 pheonix (or whoever) bios IF needed either
(avail. from jameco electronics)   8-).
